Coming to Toronto between May 1st and 3rd is a competition that is far more hardcore than our own Game Making Deathmatch: it’s TOJam!
The rules: you have 3 days to make a game on the given theme. Go!

Actually, there’s more to it than that… the TOJam site is filled with all of the information that you need to know in order to compete.

Registration is open now and is already half full! If you’re planning on participating put in your registration as soon as you can!

Our last meeting of the year will take place in BA2195 on Thursday April 9th between 5-7 PM.

Because it’s the last meeting of the year, we will be holding club elections for the coming year. We don’t hold meetings during the summer, so the elected group will administer the club from September 2009 onwards.

The 5 positions that are available are:
President (Incumbent: Jennifer)
Vice-president (Incumbent: Katie)
General administrator (Incumbent: Liesl)
GMD administrator (Incumbent: Barry)
Website administrator (Incumbent: Shane)

In order to be eligible to be elected, you must be a member of the club (attended a meeting) and nominated by another member of the club (you may not nominate yourself). If you are nominated, you can turn down the nomination if you do not wish to run.

Nominated individuals to this point:
President: Jennifer
GMD Administrator: Shane
Vice President: Liesl

The other two positions, Website administrator and General administrator, have not had any individuals nominated as of yet. If you wish to nominate a club member for any position, please send me an email at president@utgddc.com.

This week, I was unable to book a room in time for our club to meet. However, that doesn’t mean that we won’t meet at all. Let’s meet at our standard time — 5pm — at the CSSU office (BA2283) and then move to the CS Undergraduate Lounge.
